DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The disclosed system, method, and device include a cosmetic tool having a brush head on one side and a rolling applicator on the other opposing side. The rolling applicator side may include a rotatable head portion that may turn on an axis that is parallel to the length of the brush. The rotatable head portion having the rolling applicator side may be attached via a joint that goes through from the brush body to the head and allows a rounded shape, e.g., sphere or ball, to rotate around the joint. In some embodiments, the rotatable head may be in any shape that allows a rolling motion. The rotation of the rotatable head portion may be along an axis of rotation and pivoted around the joint. In some embodiments, the rotatable head portion may provide a cooling material, e.g., Zamak. In this embodiment, the rotatable head portion may not provide any dispensing features but may provide an applicator that cools the skin. In other embodiments, the rotatable head portion may be stainless steel. The rotatable head portion may be used as a pre-applicator where the side with the bristles of the brush may be used for applying makeup or other cosmetics.

FIG. 1 depicts a cosmetic tool 100 having a brush head 102 and a rolling applicator 104. The brush head 102 may include a heel 106, belly 108, and toe 110. The brush head 102 may be of any shape to apply foundation, powder, concealer, blush, eye shadow, and the like. Various bristle lengths and materials of the brush head 102 may be used for different applications. The brush head 102 may be attached to a handle 112 via a ferrule 114. The ferrule 114 may be made from plastic, tin, aluminum, brass or copper alloys that are nickel or chrome plated, and the like. In some embodiments, the ferrule 114 may be integrated into the handle 112. One or more crimps and/or one or more adhesives may be used to secure the brush head 102, ferrule 114, and handle 112.

The brush head 102 may be secured to the handle 112 at a first end 116 of the handle. The rolling applicator 104 may be secured to the handle 112 at a second end 118 of the handle 112. The first end 116 of the handle 112 may be disposed distal from the second end 118 of the handle 112. The second end 118 of the handle 112 may include a flared end 120 to prevent a pinch point at the attachment point between the handle 112 and the rolling applicator 104. In some embodiments, the second end 118 of the handle 112 may be tapered. In other embodiments, the second end 118 of the handle 112 may have a relatively constant cross-section.

In some aspects of the different embodiments, the rolling applicator 104 may rotate 122 on an axis that is parallel to the length of the brush handle 112. The rolling applicator 104 may be attached via a joint that goes through from the brush handle 112 to the rolling applicator 104 allowing a ball to rotate around the joint. The rotation 122 of the rolling applicator 104 may only be along one axis and pivoted around the joint. In one embodiment, the rolling applicator 104 may be disposed about a joint, as shown in FIG. 3D. The joint may be received by an aperture disposed in the handle, as shown in FIG. 3B. In some embodiments, the joint may be fixed to the rolling applicator 104 and rotate in the aperture relative to the handle. In other embodiments, the joint may be fixed in the aperture in the handle such that the rolling applicator 104 rotates about the joint and handle. The joint may be fit into the aperture in the handle via a snap fit, friction fit, and/or via an adhesive. In one embodiment, the joint may include an enlarged portion to fit in a corresponding enlarged portion in the aperture in the handle. The rolling applicator 104 may rotate when placed against a fixed surface, such as a face or neck area of a user, and moved relative to the fixed surface. The rolling applicator 104 may have a rounded outer surface. The rolling applicator 104 may have an ovular or circular cross-section providing varying angles for contact with a surface, such as a skin of a user.

In some embodiments, a cooling material, e.g., an alloy composed of Zinc, Aluminum, Magnesium, and/or Copper, such as Zamak, may be disposed on the outer surface of the rolling applicator 104. In other embodiments, the outer surface of the rolling applicator 104 may be stainless steel. The rolling applicator 104 does not provide any dispensing option, but may cool the skin. The rolling applicator 104 may be used as a pre-applicator and then brush head 102 may be used for applying makeup or other cosmetics.

In one embodiment of the cosmetic tool with rolling applicator, the rolling applicator may have a smooth and gentle surface in the form of a convex curve such that the rolling applicator may be an egg-shaped oval. In some embodiments, the egg-shaped oval is approximated by the ‘long’ half of a prolate spheroid, joined to a ‘short’ half of a nearly spherical ellipsoid, or even a slightly oblate spheroid. These portions are joined at the equator and share a principal axis of rotational symmetry, as illustrated in the figures. One embodiment may provide a teardrop-shaped rolling applicator having a pointed edge and where the oval is a figure constructed from two pairs of arcs, with two different radii having a pointed edge at one end, however, in one example, the pointed edge may be hidden inside the holder or handle of the cosmetic tool. In other embodiments, as described above, the

A device embodiment may include an assembly including a rotatable or rolling applicator. The applicator may include an application surface configured to treat an area of the human body, for example, the skin. The applicator may further include at least one material having a cooling property, such that when the at least one material comes into contact with the human skin, the applicator may provide a cooling effect. The applicator may further be configured to take on a cooling property such that the temperature does not cause any damage to the skin when the application surface is contacted with the skin for a prolonged period of time. Additionally, the applicator surface may maintain a cooling temperature as it is being applied so as to maintain a consistent temperature. In one example, the cosmetics or composition may be, for example, applied on the skin prior to using the disclosed applicator, thereby the rolling motion of the rolling applicator on the skin may aid to further smooth and/or spread the already applied cosmetics. In some embodiments, the rolling applicator may be used as a massaging device or instrument to effect a loosening or easing of the skin contours, thereby providing a method to smooth and/or spread the already applied cosmetics with greater ease. That is, the rolling applicator may be capable of imparting a massaging and cooling effect (in some embodiments, at the same time), to the skin, facial contours, eye area, neck, or any area where cosmetics is applied. Thereby the skin may benefit from having a cooling effect as applied from the rolling applicator via the rolling motion to better receive the cosmetics.

In some embodiments, the cosmetic tool may include a handle, a rotatable or rolling applicator, and a brush head at the opposite end of the handle. The rolling applicator being on an opposite end of the brush head may provide a weight balance so that the cosmetic tool has a similar weight ratio between the two ends, thereby providing a more efficient control when held by a user than conventional brushes. That is, when the handle is in the user's hand, by the equal distribution of the weight across the handle via the rolling applicator being on one end and the brush head on the other, the user has more control over the cosmetic tool and able to keep the cosmetic tool steady during application. Thereby, the equal weight distribution of the cosmetic tool provides a higher level of pin point accuracy for where either the brush or the rolling is to be applied on the skin. For example, where the equal weight distribution is the apportioning of weight written in the form x/y, with x being the percentage of weight in the one end, and y the percentage in the other, having x be as close to y in weight provides a counterweight to control momentum of the brush strokes. As such, the center of mass being a distribution of mass in space may be the unique point on the cosmetic tool where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass sums to zero. In one embodiment, where the center of mass is as close to the center of the cosmetic tool based on the evenly distributed weight of the two ends, the cosmetic tool provides control and a lower linear and angular momentum when in use. Accordingly, such distribution of weight based on the cosmetic tool having a rolling applicator on the other end of a brush head allows the center of gravity of the cosmetic tool's body to be the point around which the resultant torque due to gravity forces vanishes.

In one embodiment, the rolling applicator is mounted on the cosmetic tool so as to rotate about a fixed axis that is lateral to the longitudinal axis of the applicator, and roll in a direction on the skin, in line with the transverse axis (along the cross-section) of the cosmetic tool. In an alternate embodiment, the rolling applicator may be mounted on the cosmetic tool so as to roll along both straight and curved paths adjusting between positions as the cosmetic tool is moved along the skin surface. That is, the cosmetic tool, via the rolling applicator may apply makeup, such as foundation, to the skin of a user's face and/or neck to create a smooth transition from one direction to another while being applied to smoothing a particular part of the face and/or neck.

FIG. 2A depicts a user using 200 the rolling applicator 104 of the cosmetic tool 100 of FIG. 1. The user may, for example, apply an eye cream, concealer, or the like to an eye area 202 or to a portion of the outer surface of the cosmetic tool 100. The user may then move the rolling applicator 104 of the cosmetic tool 100 across 204 the skin surface, for example, eye area, causing the rolling applicator 104 to rotate 122. The rolling applicator 104 provides a cooling sensation, which may cause outer layers of skin in the eye area 202 to contract. The user may roll 122 the rolling applicator 104 across the eye area 204, or any other surface area of the skin. While the eye area 204 is depicted, the cosmetic tool 100 may be used across any portion of the user's face, neck, body, and/or skin.

FIG. 2B depicts the user of FIG. 2A using 201 the brush head 102 of the cosmetic tool 100 of FIG. 1. The user may rotate the cosmetic tool 102 to use the brush head 102 disposed proximate the first side 116 of the handle. The user may use the brush head 102 to apply foundation, concealer, makeup, or the like. In some embodiments, the user may use the rolling applicator, as shown in FIG. 2A, after using the brush head 102.
